a few of us get together to share studying skills for linux system administration.

+

The Linux Systems Administration Study Group ('''LSG''') has been created in direct relation to the SF-LUG group and other related Linux events.<br/>

−

we have an eye on certification and use the lPI book and a book by michael yang

+

* Share and practice skills for Linux System Administration and hack on '''any''' and '''all''' things Linux/FOSS.<br/>

−

on red hat certification. emphasis is on doing first, then leraning.

+

* Emphasis is on '''everyone''' being welcome

+

* We encourage '''new people of all user levels''' to join in.<br/>

==Meeting time and location==

+

* We now meeting at <strong>SECRET LOCATION</strong>. email <strong>bigsack@gmail.com</strong> for the coordinates.

+

* For announcements, check out the [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Mailinglist Noisebridge-Discuss list].

+

+

==Our Current Focus==

+

* We'll be setting up various networking equipment (server,switch, router, gateway, etc.) in two different rooms at the new location (as time provides) as well as starting other study topics.

+

* We'll be moving a box with existing server and routing software from one room to another room and connecting it to their network and securing it.

+

* This will be done as it would be in an occupational scenario giving two rooms internet via eth_ and wlan_ (i.e., establishing full connectivity via hardwire/wireless.)

===Past Bash Shell Scripting for Linux Systems Administrators===

+

In early 2012 the study group focused on shell scripting in Bash. The class was very small, but has grown ever since. [http://www.systemateka.com/mkshscr.sh.html Here is a shell script] that makes shell scripts. Can you explain every detail on every line?

+

+

The shell scripters were meeting and working through their code on a line by line basis. [http://www.linuxintheshell.org/2012/02/16/entry-000-redirection/ This article] on redirection is a great read as a followup to the past 2012-02-21 meeting.

+

One of the shell scripters put out [http://www.grantbow.com/command_line.html this good meta-guide] for learning the Command Line and for creating more advanced shell scripting in Bash.

+

There are also the most recent [http://www.linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php The Linux Command Line book] and [http://bash.deta.in/abs-guide.pdf Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide v6.6.19] available as PDF downloads as well.
